can you fax from this printer

I can't do anything with this printer. It is by far the worst printer I have ever owned. Run from this thing as fast as you can.

I'm looking at the printer right now, and no, It does not have a phone plugin for faxing right from the printer. however, most windows computers with modems allow you to send a fax anyway. (windows xp, 7, 8 im sure)You simply scan the document in and send it fax with a PC. Whenever you go to print a document in windows, the drop-down where you select what printer to print from also has a "fax" option. Selecting that and printing will open up a fax wizard.

Sorry I can not help you. I am not set up to use my printer for faxing. And I do not plan to do that.

Scan yes, but won't print only save to your computer or send. Fax will send but won't print a received fax.

No it can not fax. The Bluetooth module is an add on. I've never used it since the wireless works fine.

I hooked mine up for that purpose, but haven't been able to figure out the fax function on my new printer. So I am not much help.

First to answer your question about this printer. No it will not do that. You do not need a computer to do what you want. There are online services that will send faxes via email. There's a small fee but cheaper than a printer/fax.

Yes as far as I know you can print a confirmation report. See http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01739667.pdf and http://www.fixya.com/support/t6992198-hp_1040_fax_prints_sending_confirm

e-fax via VOIP but other printers have this capability. This printer turned into a $150 paper weight in only 6 months times. It jammed constantly and went thru printer cartridges faster than I could buy them.

Sorry that I can't help you; I don't need a fax so I didn't set it up. We have 3 laptops & a Kindle that all work wirelessly with the printer.

You can send fax by having your phone line plugged in; and going to fax using the touchpad on the device. It does fax pretty easy. My complaint with the machine is that the touchpad does not work good. I often have to touch several times before the machine reacts.

I don't know, I haven't tried. Just recently bought the printer and we're still trying to find the best location in the house to get the best of the wireless and fax capabilities. The printer and the manual are at a different location that I am. Now that you ask me that, I'll have to take a look at the manual since I'd like to print on CD's too.

This model does not. I believe you have to go with the DCP8190DN for faxing capability.

Yes, this is a multifunction printer. It has the ability to copy, print, scan and fax.

I actually gave this printer a very poor rating, but Amazon had sent me the incorrect (but similar model). They made good on it for me. I don't see an easy way for you to accomplish what you want to do. Two suggestions: 1. Disconnect the phone line from the printer and only reconnect it when you want to send a fax. 2. If your phone is connected to the printer, install an inexpensive phone line splitter. Connect the input jack to the phone line; then connect one output jack directly to your phone and the other to your printer which would be removed as in 1. above.

Yes, you can use a fax in one of the lines if you have a different one to use as your phone

The printer works as a regular fax; if you retain an e-fax service like RightFax, you can probably use the Scan to Email functionality together with the eFax service to have a document-to-pdf efax set-up.

No. Nor will it support a fax. My device works well. One issue is voice clarity is not always good.
